I just noticed the download size of the Wine binaries on wine.dataparty.no have gone up from around 6 megs back in March, to about 30 megs now! What caused the extra weight? I noticed on the sourceforge page download sizes vary greatly depending on distro. Why? -Matt Bailey

As the Slackware package maintainer, I'm not sure what the other packagers do, but mine have been about 30 MB or so of late. The smallest package I've made has been about 17 MB and the largest about 61 MB. For historical perspective here's the edited ls -l of my package directory: ls -l *.tgz 17431969 Dec 4 2001 Wine-20011004.tgz 18140187 Jan 7 2002 Wine-20011226.tgz 19305609 Mar 12 2002 Wine-20020310-i386-1.tgz 20456014 Apr 12 2002 Wine-20020411-i386-1.tgz 41525571 May 27 2002 Wine-20020509-i386-1.tgz 23106035 Jun 9 2002 Wine-20020605-i386-noopengl.tgz 23279169 Jun 9 2002 Wine-20020605-i386-opengl.tgz 24028405 Jul 13 2002 Wine-20020710-i386-1.tgz 24126868 Dec 6 20:17 Wine-20021125-i386-1.tgz 61090305 Jan 20 11:54 Wine-20030115-i386-1.tgz 31003753 Mar 1 12:58 Wine-20030219-i386-1.tgz 31038306 Mar 9 19:18 Wine-20030219-i386-403.tgz 32229386 Apr 10 12:44 Wine-20030408-i686-1.tgz 34417735 Apr 21 18:47 Wine-20030408-i686-S9.tgz 34930175 May 9 10:51 Wine-20030508-i686-S9.tgz Perhaps some of the other maintainers would like to weigh in?
